About me
I’m an all-round futurist/futurologist with a sound engineering foundation and over 1800 inventions. I spend most of my time writing futures material for white papers or to accompany PR campaigns, but I’ve also delivered well over 1000 conference presentations and appeared over 650 times on TV and Radio, often following writing I’ve done for PR campaigns. I’ve written hundreds of commissioned reports, press articles and six books, most recently Space Anchor, Total Sustainability and You Tomorrow (2nd Edn). I sometimes undertake phone or face-to-face consultancy on any aspect of the future, usually from a technology perspective, using over 30 years experience as a futurologist and engineer. I have demonstrated about 85% accuracy when looking 10-15 years ahead.
I am a Chartered Fellow of the British Computer Society and a Fellow of the World Academy for Arts and Science, the World innovation Foundation and the Royal Society for Arts and Commerce.

Reblogged this on The Gospel According to the Romans and commented:
This blog post by Ian Pearson shows what Old Timey religions are up against: a world changing so rapidly that life a few decades out is unimaginable. Let’s remember that there were still people living in New Guinea who had never seen anything made of metal, at the time that Neil Armstrong was walking on the moon. Radically different cultures can exist on the same planet… but not indefinitely.
